Rise from the sword

Chapter 68

When Ozawa Yuanyuan arrived in the valley with his remaining cavalry squadron, Zhang Dabiao had already slipped into the mountains and forests with the assault company, leaving him only a white and shivering two devils.

"Where's the Eighth Route Army?"

Ozawa Yuanyuan asked, but when no one responded, he whipped a whip at his nearest second devil.

"Ah...Taijun spare your life"

With a scream, the two devils quickly replied tremblingly: "They went over there, and they took off our clothes before leaving."

Following Er Guizi's fingers, Ozawa Yuyuan judged the direction.

heading north.

The Eighth Route Army is fleeing north!

"See how many of them there are?"

Riding on the military horse, Ozawa Yuanyuan held a whip, looked down, and looked gloomily at the two devils who had been whipped by him, so frightened that the two devils shivered even more when he spoke:

"More than 100...they...they rushed down, there are more than 100...there are still on the mountain, but they can't see clearly"

"go away"

Ozawa Yuanyuan was very dissatisfied with the incoherent answer of the two devils. He took a whip away, and then asked another two devils to question him. open.

"Taijun..." The voice of the two devils being referred to was bleak.

"Have you seen how many people in the Eighth Route Army ambushing you? They fled over there?"

What are these people doing, rubbish...

"About 150 or so, they ran over there"

This Er Guizi is obviously better mentally, speaks a lot, and even added a lot of information: "They have a lot of machine guns, at least [-] machine guns."

"More than 20 machine guns..."

Ozawa's tone of voice was surprised.

There are more than 100 people and [-] machine guns. The light firepower of this group of Eighth Route Army is quite strong. It should be specially strengthened before departure. It is absolutely impossible for the Eighth Route Army to have a light machine gun configuration of this scale...
Moreover, judging from the ambush just now, the opponent's bullets are also quite abundant. The light machine gun has the firepower density of the heavy machine gun, and there are even a large number of automatic pistols and a large number of high-power grenades...

If the opponent has so many machine guns and plenty of ammunition, then it's not something that a cavalry squadron of mine can handle...
Ozawa's heart is very pressing.

His cavalry squadron was able to slash people here and there because the army in the Republic of China had few machine guns and lacked bullets, so they could not form a firepower network.

Didn't you see that there are no frontal cavalry in Europe now?A few Marks, a few crossfires, can make a brigade of cavalry lie down honestly. He is a cavalry squadron, facing dozens of machine guns with sufficient ammunition, and if he rushes up, most of them will fall in half. on the road

"Send a message to Colonel Sanho"

Calling the communications soldiers, Ozawa Duan said: "The more than 100 Eighth Route Army that attacked Shuangfeng Town have already fled to the north. They are currently two kilometers north of Caojiazhuang. Our department is chasing them along the route they fled."

Having said this, he glanced at the two ghosts who were smooth and smooth, and the corners of his mouth evoked ridicule, and continued:
"Pay attention to the Imperial Consortium, the Eighth Route Army has robbed a lot of the Imperial Consortium's uniforms"

After he finished speaking, he left behind a dozen or so devils to collect the corpses of the cavalry who had been killed before, waving a horse whip, and chased north with the rest of the people. …

After being beaten up, Ozawa Duoyuan was obviously more honest. On the way, his cavalry squadron tried to stay away from the mountains and forests. Even if they had to pass through, they would send outposts to spread out and investigate, or stay 200 meters away from the edge of the forest... ·

"North..."

In the Guizi headquarters in He County, Chief Sanhao, who received the telegram, spread out the map, found Caojiazhuang on the map, and then pointed his finger all the way north.

"Are they planning to break through from the north? Disguised as the Imperial Army?"

Taping the map with his fingers, Colonel Sanhao looked at the map and said to himself:

"Now the flash flood is breaking out, and the water level is not lowering at all. Without a boat, it is impossible to cross the river. In addition to detouring, you can only pass the bridge."

Thinking of this, he found the bridges to the north of Caojiazhuang one by one.

"Five bridges, three are in the city, they can't cross, and two are in the nearby mountains, but each is guarded by half a squad of imperial troops, but built with heavy machine gun fortresses..."

"You can't run away"

"Order"

He called in the signal soldiers: "Notify the bridge troops, strengthen the vigilance, close the bridge at night, prohibit the passage, the Jingxian, Hexian garrison and the Imperial Association Army and the garrison brigade pursue northward..."

······
South of Shou County, there is an agreed liaison office.

At noon, Li Yunlong was holding an unlit cigarette in his hand, and his eyes were solemn:

"It's noon, and there is no news yet. It seems that the assault company should encounter an unexpected situation."

According to his and Zhang Dabiao's predetermined plan, the Assault Company should arrive near Yangquan today, and then send someone to deliver news to him, report the situation of the Assault Company, and formulate a breakout plan.

"Reporting Head"

The soldiers who were sent by Li Yunlong to inquire about the news came back:
"The news that came from Yangquan, the devils over there are on high alert, and all the devils in Yangquan are dispatched, blocking almost all passages, forbidding everyone to pass through, only after the inspection of the devils can pass, the merchants here can't get through."

"The devil seems to have given a death order this time. Even if the puppet army has something to do with it, they will not be released."

"Guizi's key defense direction is the right side, close to Shijiazhuang"

"It seems that the devils in Xiyang, Hexian, and Jingxian in the east of Yangquan are also under martial law, but the specific situation is not clear.

Relying on Yaji and brokers to inquire about information has certain limitations, the distance can only be within a hundred miles, and the timeliness is poor, and it is easy to be blocked.

"It seems that the commandos should be in trouble, but they are still safe, otherwise the devils in Yangquan would not have engaged in such a big battle."

Li Yunlong spread out the map, looked around Yangquan on the map, and said to himself: "According to the time calculation, they should be around Xiyang. Could it be that they were run over by ghosts and lost too much?"

"But even if the devil catches up, it's not difficult to send one or two people over to deliver the letter."

Li Yunlong fell into contemplation.

No matter how martial law the devil is, it should be in his hands to send Wang Gensheng or other veterans to deliver the letter.

In this era of no national weather forecast and no current affairs news, it is difficult to know the weather changes and flash floods that are hundreds of miles away. Li Yunlong naturally cannot guess the situation facing Zhang Dabiao.

"There is a brigade of more than 600 devils in Meng County, and the backside near Meng County is Kong Jie's new group..." Putting away the cigarette in his hand, Li Yunlong's eyes gradually lit up.

"What do you want?"

Kong Jie on the side saw Li Yunlong's appearance, and knew that this kid was thinking about a ghost idea: "Let's go out with the whole regiment, and only [-] people are left in Yangcun, so don't mess around."

"Hey hey..."

Li Yunlong smiled naively: "Why don't you ask a friend to help you..."

Then, a communications soldier was called.

"Communication soldier, send me a letter to Xingjia Village"
